    Hoop Stress

    Using Lame' Equation for Hoop stress the equation states Hoop Stress=(a^2pi-b^2po) - (pi-po)a^2b^2 b^2-a^2 (a^2-b^2)r^2 pi=interior pressure po=exterior pressure a=interior radius b=exterior radius What does the r stand for? is it the total radius or is it...

    Tank design material

    What material would be best suited for vessel casing in a situation where the unit heats a material up to 600F using an indirect heat source of steam and has the ability to be put under vacuum?

    tank design material

    What type of material would be best used for construction of a vessel in a situation where the unit heats up a material to approximately 600F using an indirect heat source of steam and has the ability to be put under vacuum?
